Matt Kemp and Rihanna: Really Dating!

It looks like the editors of THG were a bit too quick to dispute the authenticity of a rumor surfacing yesterday that linked Rihanna and Matt Kemp romantically. For one, the source reporting it was OK! freaking Magazine. Second, they were supposedly off in Dubai together, and the timeline simply didn't add up to us. Well, it turns out the UK's Mirror actually spotted RiRi and Matty up close and personal while vacationing in Mexico together last weekend. There are photos! It looks like Rihanna and Matt Kemp may be a real item. We stand corrected! A Gold Glove winner who swiped 69 bags over the past two seasons, the 25-year-old baseball star is...

Celebs Tweet Farewell to Casey Johnson

Those close to Casey Johnson are in mourning over the heiress' unexpected death. As you might expect, in this technological age, they're turning to Twitter to express sympathy and heartache over the passing of their friend. To wit: Paris Hilton: "In bed crying, looking at baby pictures of Casey, Nicky and I. I feel so upset. I feel like I've lost a sister. My heart is broken. Miss her." Lindsay Lohan: "R.I.P. To a friend to and of many—Casey Johnson—my regards to her family, friends and her beautiful daughter Ava* you are in our hearts CJ." Samantha Ronson: "R.I.P. Casey Johnson. Am so sick of those 3 letters." And, of course, fiancee Tila Tequila...

The Bachelor Recap: Season 14 Premiere

The Hollywood Gossip sat through the season premiere of The Bachelor last night to bring you this recap, in which we award and deduct points as we see fit. Take it away, Jake Pavelka and aspiring trophy wives! Plus 6, or one per shot of Jake shirtless in the opening three minutes. Jake: "The most powerful emotion is love. Love is perfect." Minus 3. The show gives us some background on a bunch of the girls before they meet Jake. Most look at themselves in the mirror a lot. Sounds about right. Plus 2. Obligatory Minus 10 for the painful On the Wings of Love subtitle and for ABC's the ladies' constant attempts to work Jake's profession into bad...

Lady Gaga Gets the Comic Book Treatment

Based on how often (and for the outrageous reasons) she appears in our celebrity fashion section, one might say Lady Gaga resembles a cartoon character as is. But on May 5, she'll become one for real - on the cover of a comic book! The funny thing is that the colorful premiere issue of the new Fame series features the singer looking less ridiculous than in many actual Lady Gaga pictures. But she definitely looks ... super: Lady Gaga: A superhero of music, fashion and now comic books! Lady G is certainly known for being animated as a performer - her concerts are can't miss events - but never in this fashion. We think it suits her rather well,...

Vanessa Hudgens and Selena Gomez are "Women to Watch For"

As we head into a new decade, who are the young celebrities on whom we should keep an eye? While this comes as no surprise to THG staff members and readers, Vanity Fair has cited a pair of "Women to Watch Out For." They are... drumroll in full force... Vanessa Hudgens and Selena Gomez! Each rising star is interviewed in the magazine. What do they think of fame, fortune and celebrity crushes? A few excerpts from each young beauty are below: Hudgens, on growing up: “I started off as a super-shy girl, extremely hesitant. Now I’m really growing into my own person. I can actually take care of myself, which my mom thought would never happen.” Hudgens,...

Jayson Williams in Car Crash; DUI Charges Expected

Former NBA star Jayson Williams was in a car crash last night in New York City, and is expected to face DUI charges after his SUV struck a tree in Manhattan. TMZ says Williams fractured his neck, while other sources say the former New Jersey Net suffered only minor injuries and was taken to Bellevue Hospital. Police say it appeared Williams, whose history with the law is well documented, may have been drinking before the accident at 3:15 a.m. this morning. Williams was in the passenger seat when officers arrived, but witnesses told police they saw him on the driver's side - and no one else was in the car. Things have gone from bad to worse for...

Nick Jonas Makes Like Michael Jackson

We all know how much Nick Jonas' ex-girlfriend likes to make like a stripper. Conversely, the talented, curly-haired male singer prefers to make like a musical icon. During a concert Sunday night concert at the House of Blues in Dallas, Nick broke into a version of Michael Jackson's "The Way You Make Me Feel." Amidst rumors of a Jonas Brothers break-up, and as Nick goes off on tour with his new band, listen to the rendition below and let us know: Does Nick have what it takes to become a successful solo artist? ...

Katy Perry and Russell Brand: Engaged!

On December 28, we reported that Katy Perry and Russell Brand might be engaged. Today, you can officially take "might be" out of the equation! The crazy pair, who have been together for just a few months, decided to make it official five days ago while on vacation together in Jaipur, India. A pal says that Russell Brand proposed and Katy Perry said yes. Then he kissed a girl, ladies and gentlemen, and she liked it. Sorry, that was bad. The exotic trip, a Perry pal said, "was his Christmas gift. She told him she loved Indian culture while they were in England, so he surprised her." Looks like he had more than one surprise in store! Katy Perry...

A Hair-Raising Showdown: Michael Cera vs. Pauly D

The Jersey Shore cast has gone from a random, juiced-up bunch of ill-tempered meatheads to borderline celebrity status in a span of just a couple of weeks. Now they're welcoming a new star into the mix. Actor Michael Cera of Superbad, Juno, Arrested Development and now Youth in Revolt visited the cast and was given a full makeover - Jersey Shore style. Michael's visit will be shown in series of promos this Thursday while a new episode of Jersey Shore airs. As you can see below, he channels Pauly D's hair. Whether the lovable actor's hair can hang with the ultimate guido and "Rhode Island's most famous DJ" remains to be seen. Vote in our survey...

Adam Lambert Lost 40 Pounds

In early 2009, Adam Lambert won over viewers on American Idol. But that wasn't the singer's biggest victory to date. In a new interview with OK! Weekly, Lambert opens up about his life-changing victory over obesity. “I lost probably about forty pounds about ten years ago,” he said. “When I was in high school, I had bad eating habits. I ate a bunch of crap – a bunch of fast food and stuff. I learned more about what’s healthy and what’s not healthy. I used a little bit of self-control.” After shedding the excess weight, how did Lambert feel? “Oh, a hundred times better. Physically I felt better, but I also had better self-esteem and body image.”...

Shocker: Redmond O'Neal Arrested For Drugs

If he keeps up this frantic pace, Redmond O'Neal will be positioned to join the holy trinity of celebrity drug offenders along with legends DMX and Pete Doherty. How these guys are ever not in jail is baffling, but it looks like Red's luck may have run out after eight months of staying clean (or at least avoiding arrest). At his court-ordered drug-and-alcohol treatment center, the son of the late Farrah Fawcett and Ryan O'Neal has yet again been arrested on felony charges. The latest bust went down on December 29, when O'Neal returned to the facility (this is his fourth go-round in rehab) after earning a 24-hour free pass. He used that pass...

Source: Gilbert Arenas' Guns Unlicensed

NBA star Gilbert Arenas packs heat. What he does not pack (or apply for, to put it more accurately) is a license for any of the weapons in his locker. The Washington Wizards player, who is being investigated for allegedly pulling a gun on a teammate December 24, likely did so with an illegal gun. He has no valid license to possess guns he stored in his locker in D.C., according to law enforcement sources, which could land him in big trouble. There were reportedly four guns (not three, as had been reported) in Arenas' locker, including a gold-plated Desert Eagle - a gigantic handgun. AGENT ZERO: Maybe Gilbert Arenas should change his nickname...

Kim and Khloe Kardahian: The Sell Out is Komplete

As they say below, Kim Kardashian and Khloe Kardashian are living the dream. By losing weight and fitting the societal image of what makes a good body? Heavens, no. Instead, their dream involves raking in cash by shilling for an unhealthy, unlicensed, unregulated product. The heretofore curvy (and sexy) sisters have sold their souls for a few bucks. Kim, the same woman that used to be so proud of her curves, has shrunken to the size of a skeleton and is encouraging fans to do the same in the following QuickTrim commercial. It's pathetic. QuickTrim Commercial Remember, readers: QuickTrim is NOT FDA approved. It's a cleansing system that will cause one to sit on the toilet all day and has no guarantee of long-term weight loss success. If you are unsatisfied with your weight, eat a balanced...

Brit Hume to Tiger Woods: Come to Jesus!

Veteran Fox News anchor Brit Hume is weighing in on the Tiger Woods scandal with advice for the star. Simply put, he thinks Tiges could use a little Christ. Dude could use more than that. Remember, the list of Tiger Woods mistresses we know about is in double figures, people. Jesus would have His hands full. On Fox News Sunday, Hume said the golfer, who cheated on Elin Nordegren countless times, should convert to Christianity for the "redemption" he needs. "Whether he can recover as a person I think is a very open question," Hume said. "The extent to which he can recover seems to me depends on his faith." "It's a tragic situation. He is said...
